my wife and I are both named on the property deeds.My wife has arranged a mortgage in her name only.Lloyds Bank state that the deed must be in the same name as the mortgage.I'm happy with this, but how can I keep my rights to half the value of the property?

HiIf you do wish to go ahead with this you will need to protect your interest in the property with a Declaration Of Trust stating that your wife holds the property on Behalf of you bothThis can be registered at the land registry.Your rights in the property will not changeI hope that this is of assistance - please ask if you need further detailsClare
